    Abstract: Examples described herein relate to an apparatus including at least one memory and at least one processor communicatively coupled to the at least one memory, the at least one processor to: allocate a scheduler to an egress port and based on unavailability of an egress port, allocate the scheduler to a second egress port to cause any packet allocated to a transmit queue associated with the scheduler to be transmitted using the second egress port. In some examples, a system receives a packet at a port on a network interface, associates a port group with the packet, determines a receive queue for the packet, and copies the packet to the determined receive queue. The port group can be adjusted to remove the port or to add a second port.

    Abstract: Technologies for programming flexible accelerated network pipelines include a comping device with a network controller. The computing device loads a program binary file that includes a packet processing program and a requested hint section. The binary file may be an executable and linkable format (ELF) file with an extended Berkeley packet filter (eBPF) program. The computing device determines a hardware configuration for the network controller based on the requested offload hints and programs the network controller. The network controller processes network packets with the requested offloads, such as packet classification, hashing, checksums, traffic shaping, or other offloads. The network controller returns results of the offloads as hints in metadata. The packet processing program performs actions based on the metadata, such as forwarding, dropping, packet modification, or other actions. The computing device may compile an eBPF source file to generate the binary file. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

    Abstract: Examples described herein relate to a network interface device comprising: a device interface; at least one processor; a direct memory access (DMA) device; and a packet processing circuitry. In some examples, the at least one processor, when operational, is configured to: in connection with a first operation: perform a format translation of a first descriptor from a first format associated with an emulated device to a second format associated with the packet processing circuitry and provide, to the packet processing circuitry, the translated first descriptor. In some examples, the at least one processor, when operational, is configured to: in connection with a second operation: perform a descriptor format translation of a second descriptor from the second format associated with the packet processing circuitry to the first format associated with the emulated software device and provide, to the emulated device, the translated second descriptor.

    Abstract: Examples described herein relate to a device indicating a number of available interrupt messages that is more than physical resources available to store the available interrupt messages and allocating one or more physical resources to provide one or more interrupt messages based on allocation of the one or more interrupt messages to a destination entity. The destination entity can request a maximum permitted allocation of interrupt messages regardless of interrupt message use level. The destination entity can request a maximum permitted allocation of interrupt messages regardless of interrupt message use level and allocate the requested maximum permitted allocation of interrupt messages for use in a configuration region of a device. However, based on unavailability of a physical resource to store a first interrupt message, allocation of the first interrupt message to a destination entity may not be permitted.

    Abstract: Examples described herein relate to at least one processor and circuitry, when operational, to: in connection with a request from a device to copy data to a destination memory address: based on a page fault, copy the data to a backup page and after determination of a virtual-to-physical address translation, copy the data from the backup page to a destination page identified by the physical address. In some examples, the copy the data to a backup page is based on a page fault and an indication that a target buffer for the data is at or above a threshold level of fullness. In some examples, copying the data to a backup page includes: receive the physical address of the backup page from the device and copy data from the device to the backup page based on identification of the backup page.

    Abstract: Examples described herein relate to a network interface device and in some examples, the network interface device includes an Ethernet interface, a host interface, circuitry to be configured to copy a packet payload from a host device through the host interface, form a packet based on the packet payload, and transmit the packet through the Ethernet interface, and circuitry to be configured to apply rate limiting and/or traffic shaping for packets received through the Ethernet interface based on hierarchical quality of service (H-QoS). In some examples, the circuitry is to be configured to apply rate limiting and/or traffic shaping for packets received through the Ethernet interface based on H-QoS comprises a programmable packet processing pipeline that is to be configured to perform one or more of: packet drops of packets received in excess of a receive rate, packet drops based on packet transmission in excess of a transmit rate, and/or traffic shaping of the received packets prior to transmission through one or more output ports. In some examples, to perform packet drops of packets received in excess of a receive rate, the programmable packet processing pipeline is to perform rate limiting per one or more of: class of service, subscriber, service, or interface.
